Steve Conte. Rock And Rye Queen

He met her down at Walter´s bar

A little sheep in a wolf skin cloak

In her eyes were fading stars

She could not hide behind her whiskey and coke

It´s a mystery to me

How they´ve stayed so long in this town

Little sisters´s having twins

And they´re just having one more round till they spin

Breaking up tonight and tomorrows scene

Are lonely grey hours that lie in-between

They stumble outside, a red -eyed king and his Rock and Rye Queen

Yeah Rock and Rye Queen

They waste away the time 

Staring at the faceless young

From a perch of naugahyde

They´re soaking up the news if the TV´s on

Breaking up tonight and last nights scene

Were unemployed hours of big dollar dreams

He staggers outside, his one good eye on his Rock and Rye Queen, 

Yeah Rock and Rye Queen

Her majesty 

Come around closing time they´re holding on tight

He´s been around and she´s been down

Every day all the time Christmas eve New Year´s Night 

And they´re holding on the tight

Breaking up the night 

Piss away the time 

Stagger outside and they´re 

Breaking up the night

Wasted all the time

Stumble outside red-eyed with his Rock and Rye Queen

Yeah Rock and Rye Queen

Stagger outside red-eyed with his Rock and Rye Queen

He´s just a king with his casual crown

She sets´em up and they´re knocking them down Rock and Rye Queen
